France centre Gael Fickou returns to the Stade Francais starting line-up for the first time since the World Cup on Sunday while former Springbok flyhalf Morne Steyn is on the bench for his last game for the club before returning to Pretoria to play for the Bulls...

Still plenty of time until 2020 SuperRugby, so the disposal unit has arrived early for Morne.


When conducting an interview recently, Stade Francais's billionaire owner Hans-Peter Wild said "There are some people who can learn languages and there are some that will never learn a language.

"There are other people like at Paris Saint-Germain, Thomas Tuchel he learnt French in two weeks. Heyneke will never learn it.

"He's not a great communicator, not even in English. I need a translator to talk to him sometimes. "His South African accent is tough to understand.

Poor Morne and poor Meyer.

How come the poorest flyhalf and the worst coach I remember both ended up with Stade Francais - somebody must really want to take revenge on that club for some reason or other.  

Mo rne needs not worry - his pal Meyer will soon enough join him in Pretoria for their weekly braais.  .

Learned French in two weeks? That's impossible.

I still cannot believe the Bulls are stupid enough to sign the utterly useless Morne Steyn. He was bad enough when he left imagine how kak he is now aged 35 This signing says all you need to know about the current state of the Bulls

Dave

Since the story about Morne going to the Bulls raise its head - there were major changes involving ownership of the Bulls and Ucabbit see him pkaying evean ocassional test fir the Bulls.   Oruvate owners do not want to see their money wasted and that would happen with Morne around.
